The company expects R&D expenses and G&A expenses to remain consistent or decline in 2026, though certain investments or initiatives could lead to increases . The company anticipates that its current cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $373.5 million as of March 31, 2026, will be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months, despite expenditures exceeding revenue during this period . ### Related Stocks - [DNABW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/DNABW.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Virtuix to Host Fiscal Year 2026 Results Conference Call on Thursday, June 25, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time | VTIX Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288432041.md) - [CHIPOTLE MEXICAN GRILL TO ANNOUNCE SECOND QUARTER 2026 RESULTS ON JULY 29, 2026 | CMG Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288473375.md) - [AGM 2026 outcome: Dividend declared for FY 2025.](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288762294.md) - [2026 Letter to Nano One Stakeholders | NNOMF Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288531010.md) - [PicPay Announces First Quarter 2026 Results | PICS Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288478178.md)
